No More Bottle?

Olivia seems to be losing interest in her bottle. I started her later on baby food and she's only eating 2 jars, twice daily (so 2 stage 2 jars or 4 stage 1 jars each day), which doesn't strike me as that much solid food, but the last couple days it is a BATTLE to get her to take more than 4 ounces of formula when I offer it to her. And she's been sleeping through the night now for months so she's maybe getting 4 4oz bottles per day. Not nearly enough according to my pediatrician. I've been told to cut back on the solids to make sure she's getting at least 24 oz of formula per day, but I think munch mouth isn't going to be too happy about that since she begs for food whenever she sees the boys eating. She's 9 1/2 months, so I don't have to cut her off for much longer (we try to lose the bottle by 12 months), but it's still annoying! She's different than her brothers. I had to put fruit at the front of the spoon to get the boys to eat anything savory...they liked the sweet! She doesn't mind the fruit, really doesn't like the sweeter veggies (squash & sweet potatoes) and she LOVES the green veggies, carrots and meat of all things! Such a funny girl.
She's also rolling everywhere now and can army crawl in circles, but hasn't learned to go forward or back yet. She is for SURE at the stage where you have to have a constant eye on her because she will be gone before you can look up from whatever you're doing. Also, I usually find her rolled right over to where the boys are playing, as close as she can possibly be. She loves her brothers! I had Holly & Aaron's boys here overnight last night and she was in heaven right in the middle of the boys. I was so worried someone would step on her in their excitement, but they did good! The only mishap was one of the Cole boys gave Olivia a mini Eggo waffle. I thanked him for sharing, but told him she couldn't have those things. He'll learn soon enough when his mom is yanking chokables away from Sabrina & Sophia!
